SEMANTIC ANALYSIS

The results of our semantic analysis are shown below using the website's language.

They are the main concepts covered by africanews.com.

Each concept has a confidence score. The higher it is, the more important the topic is relative to the page.

Topics
Africanews Confidence: 84% Arrow up

Africanews is an all-news channel based out of Pointe-Noire in the Republic of the Congo.

The news channel is a subsidiary of France-based euronews and began broadcasting online, TV and via Satellite on 20 April 2016.

Video on demand Confidence: 75% Arrow up

Video on demand (display) (VOD) are systems which allow users to select and watch/listen to video or audio content such as movies and TV shows when they choose to, rather than having to watch at a specific broadcast time, which was the prevalent approach with over-the-air broadcasting during much of the 20th century.

IPTV technology is often used to bring video on demand to televisions and personal computers.

Breaking news Confidence: 70% Arrow up

Breaking news, interchangeably termed latebreaking news and also known as a special report or special coverage or news bulletin, is a current issue that broadcasters feel warrants the interruption of scheduled programming and/or current news in order to report its details.

Its use is also assigned to the most significant story of the moment or a story that is being covered live.

It could be a story that is simply of wide interest to viewers and has little impact otherwise.

Many times, breaking news is used after the news organization has already reported on the story.

When a story has not been reported on previously, the graphic and phrase "Just In" is sometimes used instead.
